Metaxa Angels Treasure Single Cask Strength 70cl, 42.5%

Description

Metaxa Angels Treasure Single Cask Strength 70cl, 42.5% is a premium limited-edition Greek amber spirit from the House of Metaxa. Official Metaxa sources describe it as the ultimate expression of the unique “Angels’ Treasure” phenomenon in the company’s Attica cellars, where water evaporates faster than alcohol, concentrating the spirit over time. Metaxa also defines its spirits more broadly as a marriage of sweet Muscat wines from the Aegean islands, fine aged wine distillates, and Mediterranean botanicals.

This bottling stands out because it is released as a single-cask-strength expression, with each decanter individually numbered and signed as part of a limited release. Metaxa’s official product page states that every release is limited to 4,500 decanters, while the Angels’ Treasure story specifically mentions cask No. 1019 and confirms 4,500 individually numbered decanters for that release.

There is one detail worth checking against your physical bottle label before publishing the page: Metaxa’s official site lists this release at 42.2% ABV, while your title shows 42.5%. Skroutz also shows 42.5% in its listing header and characteristics, but the descriptive text on the same page refers to barrel No. 1019 at 42.2% ABV.

Collector’s Note

This is one of the more collectible modern Metaxa releases because it combines limited numbered presentation, single-cask identity, luxury packaging, and a strong brand story around the reversed “Angels’ Share” effect in the Metaxa cellars. It is much more than a standard house bottling and is clearly aimed at connoisseurs and collectors as well as drinkers.

Its appeal is not just rarity. The stronger draw is the combination of Greek identity, Metaxa’s unusual production style, and the concentrated flavour profile that comes from this special cellar ageing approach. The second sentence is an inference based on the official product and story pages.
